About US
Bookkept is a cloud-based tax and business advisory firm located in Melbourne, servicing clients Australia wide. We offer a comprehensive range of accounting and business advisory services tailored to meet all accounting requirements across a wide range of industries.
We’re not just accountants, we’re business people too. We know what it takes to start a company and risk it all to build a successful business. Our experience navigating the business world began with our own involvement in respective family businesses and grew through over 15 years of combined experience in the tax and business services landscape.
Cliché as it may sound, we are not your typical accounting firm. After working in various accounting firms with clunky software, cubicles and excessive middle management Daniel and Brendan came together with a clear vision of what a progressive accounting firm should look like. We’ve thrown out all of the stereotypes; timesheets, charge out rates and silly overheads to deliver innovative and actual value to our clients. Your typical accounting firm has all these things and then inadvertently passes these costs on to their clients through inflated bills that increase every year. We provide complete transparency when it comes to our fees. We charge for delivering a service, rather than running a clock.
Bookkept helps clients manage their cash-flow and delivers continuous value by providing high level visibility on business performance. Besides handling tax and bookkeeping matters, we provide true value to our clients by guiding them through their financial reports, enabling them to better understand how to control their growth and take opportunities further and higher. We keep in touch with our clients on a regular basis to ensure they are on top of their taxes rather than meeting with them once a year to discuss a big tax bill for a tax period that ended 9 months prior.
We walk our clients through the many accounting processes within their business structure and provide guidance and insights on tax planning and asset protection. We call this ‘future proofing’.
There is no greater thrill for us than when our clients hit and/or smash their goals out of the park! We are dedicated to creating innovative and bespoke accounting solutions for our clients using a suite of cloud-based products to achieve customised birds eye view of their business and how it is performing. We practice what we preach too, our office is completely paperless and cloud-based – we don’t even have a printer!
Our ability to pivot and problem solve sets us apart from our competition and empowers our clients to unleash their full potential.
Our mission
To add value to our client’s businesses by utilising technology, providing sound advice and delivering excellent service.
